Formal introduction of IMDB
And Chinese translation:
In 2009, American geologist Adrian helmsley (chiwetel ejiofor) went to India to meet his friend Satnam. Satnam found that neutrinos from large-scale solar flares penetrated the earth and caused its core temperature to rise rapidly. Adrian returns to Washington, D.C., and informs the White House Chief of Staff Carl Anheuser (oliver platt) and US President thomas wilson (Danny Glover) that this will trigger a series of events that will lead to the end of the world. At the 36th G8 Summit in 20 10, other heads of state and government learned about this situation. They started a secret project to ensure the continuity of human life, and strategically selected 400,000 people to enter a series of huge ark to be built in the Himalayas. In order to fund this cause, additional individuals are allowed to buy tickets at the price of 10 billion euros per person.
20 12, Jackson Curtis (john cusack) is a writer in Los Angeles and a limousine driver of Russian billionaire Yuri karpov. Jackson's ex-wife Kate (amanda peet) and their children Noah and Lily live with Jackson's new boyfriend, plastic surgeon and amateur pilot Gordon. Jackson took Noah and Lily camping in Yellowstone National Park, where they met Charlie Frost, a radio presenter and conspiracy theorist. Charlie supported a theory that the Mayans predicted that the world would end in 20 12, and claimed that he knew the ark plan and had a map of its location. As cracks began to appear along the San Andreas fault in California, an earthquake occurred in the San Francisco Bay Area and the family returned to their hometown. Jackson became suspicious and rented a private jet to rescue his family. When the crust began to move, he gathered his family and Gordon. When the crust collapsed into the Pacific Ocean, they fled Los Angeles.
As millions of people began to die in catastrophic earthquakes around the world, the team flew to Yellowstone National Park to retrieve Charlie's map. When the Yellowstone volcano erupted, the group got away with it. Charlie, who stayed live to broadcast the volcanic eruption, was killed in the explosion. Realizing that the Ark was in China, the team landed in Las Vegas, where they met Yuri, his twin son, his girlfriend Tamara, and the pilot Sasha. They joined the team and got a bigger plane, Antonov An-225, ready to fly over the Pacific Ocean. Also aboard Air Force One for the Ark were Anheuser, Adrian and his first daughter, laura wilson. President Wilson stayed in Washington, D.C. to make his last speech to the nation. He was soon killed by a tsunami that crashed the USS John F. Kennedy into the White House. With the death of the Vice President and the disappearance of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Anheuser appointed himself as Acting Commander-in-Chief.
Sasha found that the plane didn't have enough fuel to fly to China, so they had to land in the sea. But when they got close to the ground, they found that they were indeed in China. The crust has moved.
Yuri, who bought ark tickets for himself and his son, abandoned the Curtis family, Gordon and Tamara after arriving in China. However, a group of abandoned people were picked up by Nima, a monk. With the help of Nima's brother Tenzin, they began to sneak into the ark through the hydraulic chamber. He is a welder in the ark project. At the last moment of his life, Satnam called Adrian and told him that a tsunami was engulfing India and coming towards the ark. After learning this news, Anheuser ordered the ark to be closed before the boarding procedure was completed, and thousands of people were trapped outside. Adrian tried to persuade other G-8 leaders to let the others on board. As the tailgate of the ark lowered, when Gordon was killed, he was caught between gears, followed by Tenzin's large electric drill. Yuri sacrificed his life to let his two sons board the ship in time, but obstacles prevented the gate from closing, making the ship unable to start the engine. When the tsunami came, it began to flood the ark, flooded Tamara, and let the ark drift helplessly. Jackson and Noah worked together to release the rig and cable from the shutdown mechanism. The gate was closed and the crew regained control of the ark, avoiding a fatal collision with Mount Everest.

When the flood from the global tsunami finally receded, satellite data showed that Africa rose relative to sea level, and its Drakensberg Mountains are now the highest on earth. As the ark set sail for the Cape of Good Hope, Jackson reconciled with his family and Adrian began his relationship with Laura. The film ends from the perspective of the earth, revealing that all continents have merged to form the shape of the African continent.
In 2009, Dr Adrian Helmsley, an American scientist, participated in an Indian research project, in which his colleague Saturn discovered a very mysterious but shocking truth: solar surface storms are having a fatal impact on the earth. Later, the doctor contacted a friend of his, Hesley, who was also a young scientific adviser to the President, and delivered the shocking news. Hesley tried to report this disturbing discovery to the President, but he was rejected by his long-unpopular arrogant White House Administration Secretary Ansers.
After that, in 20 10, the president began to realize some signs, so he called the members of the Group of Eight to hold secret consultations in Spain. He wanted to tell other leaders the fact that the world's top scientists had admitted that the world was dying. At the same time, China's great People's Liberation Army is carrying out a huge project-resettling all villages and populations and building a super dam.
20 1 1, the more puzzling phenomenon is getting more and more serious. An extremely wealthy Saudi businessman decided to donate more than 1 billion dollars to the British army/intelligence unit and the World Heritage Fund (whose president is Laura, the president's daughter), to replace many handed down treasures such as Mona Lisa with fakes and store the original works in the Alps.
In 20 12, the pace of destruction has been moving forward ... there have been many "small earthquakes" on the west coast of the United States, and there are many signs of ground fissures around the world. Nevertheless, people still live their daily lives as usual, and are not aware of the coming disaster. Among them, our protagonist, Jackson, is a passionate and sober writer. He is driving to Los Angeles to pick up his ex-wife's two children, Lily and Noah, and intends to take them camping in Yellowstone National Park. But when he saw his ex-wife's current husband Gordon, a plastic surgeon, hanging high, the joy he expected to reunite with his children suddenly cooled down. Then the camera turns to Harry, an old jazz musician, who is the father of Hesley, the president's scientific adviser. When he was performing on a cruise ship off the coast of San Francisco, he tried to persuade his old band friend Tony to call his son in Japan. Suddenly, the whole cruise ship capsized completely from the bottom of the North Sea ... and the camera turned to Washington. When Laura, the president's daughter, received a phone call from the curator of the Crazy Museum in France, the curator angered her foundation. Laura gradually realized that she was being used by some kind of power, and a series of manipulators were just his father and scientific consultant Hesley.
In the meantime, when writer Jackson finally arrived in Huangshi with his children, they found that the area had been blocked and no one could tell them what was going on. Jackson happened to meet a radio host who was keen on breaking the news. This weirdo thinks that destruction will start in California, spread to the whole of Yellowstone National Park, and finally the whole world. Jackson was skeptical at first, but the fact told him that more and more ground cracks in Los Angeles had begun to get bigger and bigger.
Things are getting worse and worse, and they are going on at an unpredictable speed ... Clues about the truth are gradually emerging-the world elite and the rich are building a huge ship with enough materials for human beings. Until the disaster is over, only the people on board will come out to rebuild civilization and reproduce human beings. The rest will be looted by the catastrophe. In short, it will be a replica of Noah's Ark.
Then an unusual five-minute exposure. Jackson drove back to Los Angeles, picked up his ex-wife and her current husband, and flew out of Los Angeles, which had been completely destroyed. Surprisingly, Jackson must have gone back to Huangshi to find a "crazy radio host", hoping to get a way out of him. But it is hard to imagine that when they first arrived in Huangshi, Huangshi had already become the largest active volcano in the world. At the same time, those smart-ass elites are ready to start the planned Ark project. ...
Finally, earthquake, tsunami, volcanic eruption, volcanic ash ... our protagonist started a global escape journey ... Remember the dam in our country? Its real purpose is that ............................................................................................................................................................................'s life and death are uncertain!
